LOVE’S SIGHT
Some say
That love is blind.
Not so. Instead I find
True love seeks out and focuses
On good.
THE EYES HAVE IT
A smile
Upon the lips,
Can hide ill feelings well.
But sincere smiles will shine out of
The eyes.
WINK, WINK
Hey, guy,
You’ve caught my eye.
You’re just the man for me.
It’s time to kiss those other girls
Goodbye.

News Flash!
Gert and Yogi
Just had a baby boy.
They compromised to choose his name:
Yogurt.
Sorry: It’s been a very long, very hard day. I just couldn’t pass up this ridiculous thought (especially since I was eating a cup of yogurt at the time).
However, I did accomplish something worthwhile today: I bought a car. Life is almost back to normal now.
~~~
I looked
Into the night,
And to my great delight,
I saw a thousand stars begin
To dance.
I heard
No music played,
But could feel the rhythm
Of their pirouetting ‘cross the
Night sky.
Angels
No doubt did sing
And tap their feet in time:
The universe in harmony —
What joy!

#1
Windy:
Flash summer storm,
The fan I’ve turned on high,
My neighbor in her gossip mode—
Hot air.
#2
Sidewalks
Could fry an egg.
Too hot to walk barefoot.
The asphalt melts beneath car wheels.
July.
#3
The sweat
Runs down my nose,
Forms currents down my back,
And plasters underwear to skin:
Heat wave.

Cinquain # 30: Done
Adieu,
NaPoWriMo.
It seems I passed the test.
At least I gave it my best shot.
Now, rest.

Cinquain # 29: Love’s Sight
Some say
That love is blind.
Not so. Instead I find
True love seeks out and focuses
On good.

Cinquain # 28: Wake-Up Call
Morning —
Bird songs ascend
Across the fragrant air.
Sunlight bounces off dew-kissed lawn.
Wake up.
Cinquain # 27: Finishing What I Started (even though I’m out of ideas)
Never
Let it be said
That I missed any day
Writing cinquain for thirty days —
Not I.
~~~
Cinqain # 26: Flash!
Lightning:
It zigs; it zags
To earth from sky. But wait —
The flash goes up, not down I’ve learned.
Surprise!

Today, I couldn’t decide between two possibilities for my theme. So I decided to give you both versions. You can decide if you like one better than the other.
Cinquain # 25: Smooch Smooch; Smack Smack
(Version A)
Kisses
Make life sweeter.
Best from lips of lovers.
But if they are not around, try
Hershey’s.
♥ ♥ ♥
(Version B)
Hershey’s
Candy kisses:
Tiny morsels of love
Wrapped in shiny silver with a
Pull string.
♥ ♥ ♥

Cinquain # 21: My Heart’s Desire
My heart
Longs to find love
That takes me as I am,
But makes me so much better by
Its pow’r.

Cinquain # 20: ‘Dear John’ Letter
My dear,
I must confess
That I have not been true
To you in love; I have cheated,
With Frank.

Cinquain # 19: Free To Pee?
Perverts:
Insane lib’rals
Who care so much about
Where sexu’ly psychotic men
Can pee.
